I second Thomas, but while in Target mode, and before trying to get stuff out, I would run a repair utility like Disk Warrior. It may even make the HDD bootable for the time you need to back up.
You know, not doing regular backups is always a bad idea, but not backing up a hard drive you already know is problematic is an EXCEPTIONALLY bad idea...
